So it has been a way busy and fun time for us! and i feel like i should have posted these craft things forever ago! but i have been busy working on stuff (multiple things still in the process) but i have had these things done for WEEKS but i have just not posted them!! and some of these projects are my "saving me from being alone while brady is at work until 11 pm" projects! as you see i try and keep myself busy when i'm alone.. so if anyone ever wants to have a craft night i have plenty more ideas i want to turn into projects! :)

HERE WE COME HOUSE MAKEOVER

These balls are decorative balls that i made for a bowl in my entry way... I just learned how to dye the hemp different colors so i will SOON be adding color to it as well! as well as the wreath and the flowers.. this is all for my entry way!

I had three peices of wood and they went from ugly to beautiful (want to see the tutorial and idea where i got it from.... click here) ps i LOVE this blog!

and this is what the final product turned out to be.. PERFECT for my living room

(it looks better in person!!)

and i have had PLENTY of baby SHOWERS! so this is some of the stuff i've been working on!! (plus i have a few more that i can't actually post the pictures yet because it would ruin their shower) so i'll post them later!
BIBS_BURP CLOTHS_CHANGING PADS_BOWS_FLOWERS

The pink stuff is what i gave Alisa for her baby shower ( i had something else with it but i forgot to take a pic )

the stars &; moons and the bow were for Katie-(in the middle) because she doesnt know what she's having and she's moving before she finds out!!! so the bow could be used as a bow tie for a baby boy, or add a clip and it could be a cute hair bow for a girl

i didnt get a good pic of it unrolled... DARN- (this is the changing pad....)

BUT i also did stars and moons for my boss Melissa (she's having a little boy- i added a little "E" because the baby's name is going to be EASTON, and i changed the changing pad to have the stars and moons on it instead of the yellow, and i used blue ribbon instead of white... so i'm sorry if those of you who got gifts are upset that i gave other people the same thing! but i thought the burp, changing pad, bib idea was a cute combo!!! maybe i should start thinking of different combos though

and all these cute bows & flowers are only the BEGINNING of what i'm making.... i just thought i'd show off what i have so far!! they will be fun to add to gifts for little girls...they will be cute on clips or on headbands!
. Now i just gotta figure out something to add to little boys gifts...... maybe bow ties and some cute suspenders :)
